I installed the YSMenu as suggested and that works but when I tried running the GBARunner2 it gives me an error ' Unsupported DLDI Name'- I tried unchecking the DMA and Reset but that didn't change anything. If I boot into GBARunner2 via the regular menu I see my GBA games but it just loads into a dark screen where nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Very strange. :unsure:
I have the exact same r4 with YSMenu installed, and GBARunner2 works great.
If you are interested I send you some photos that prove it:

Sure. No problem.:)
But only copy them if your r4 looks identical to mine. As GBARunner2 you use the latest arm7 flashcart version that you find on its website.
I don't guarantee it will work; with these Chinese clones you never know...:rofl:

thanks for sharing this. I finally got a game to work (the Base megaman battle network hack) but I'm using an enhanced version of gbarunner2 that says it's supposed to run Emerald but I still get a white screen for all Pokemon games (including hacks)

Unfortunately, it is widely known that, even using GBARunner2 hicode build, virtually all Pokémon Hacks do not work (all in all, it is not a great loss:unsure:); on the contrary, all Fire Emblem Hacks work (instead, this is a great achievement:D).

oh, so theres no way to get/play/run any pokemon game? dang I was hoping to run some on it since my ez flash omega always keeps going in recovery mode no matter what and cant get it to play anything.

How so? Have you owned it for a long time? Did you drop it? Have you tried contacting the developer here in the GBA section?

He is usually very nice, helpful and tries to solve his costumer's problems.:)
thanks but I already pmed him some years ago when I got it (I got it via ebay and i should have returned it saying it didnt work via ebay). I got it in 2019 or 2018. I need to get my spare sd card back from someone who i send it to (he was doing some builds for me and I do have a future 1 planned as well) so was going to send him the ez flash to see if he could get it to work with the build.

    @Veho, where's the poll at?

    they're giving the internet an open text box?

    I never played or own any of they devices, but I like small style, but with a somewhat grip

    How much dollar do you think it is?

    ONE MILLION DOLLA
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Probably $150 someone said Anbernic said around the same price as rg556

    you know which game i wish they would rerelease

    that game's engine is really fucking intensive so it runs like literal shit on xbox 360 and ps3

    like the lighting in that game was genuinely so good
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Not getting dragged into that again.
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    i dont get why they didn't port the one game that ran the worst on consoles, to pc
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    like you port everything to pc except the one game where it would make the most sense. why. what do you gain from this
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    is sega just personally fucking with me? are they laughing while watching me through my kinect camera as i get up to restart my xbox for the third time because the game froze again
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Buy handhelds from five below better quality
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Valve probably going to do another refresh of the deck this fall with rog ally like specs tbh
  • Veho @ Veho:
    A smaller form factor would be nice too.
